Free mince pies! Thank you to Prestwick Rotary Club for offering Pusong Pinoy a stall at the recent Prestwick “Lighting Up” event, when the town’s Festive lights were turned on. Special thanks to Debbie Broughton-Hay for inviting us.

We are grateful to Prestwick Rotary Club for supporting the work of Pusong Pinoy. Thank you to the staff of Prestwick Co-Op supermarket for donating 36 boxes of mince pies which we were offered to this event for a donation. This was a fun event. A lot of people stopped by our booth to check our Tarsier key rings, toiletries and books.

We would also like to thank Graham Hopper of Hopper’s Estate Agency for offering us a wall space for promotional material.
The event was really well attended. It was great to meet people who have supported Pusong Pinoy in the past. Thank you to everyone who donated or supported us in any way.
It was a busy, fun day- well worth the effort.

We are pleased to inform you that our Christmas Gift-giving Project, Pamasko ng Pusong Pinoy 5 (PPP5), is near completion. With help from supporters like you, we are well on our way towards accomplishing our year-end goals.

This year, we will endeavor to provide slippers to approximately 5,000 disadvantaged children and food items to 350 families. We will allocate 3,000 pairs of slippers to our recipients in Bohol who were affected by the recent earthquake in the area.

After PPP5, we will then launch our Disaster Relief Project to benefit the victims of Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda. At this time, we are in the process of identifying our intended beneficiary and target area for this project.

We are also currently looking to establish a partnership with an organization that could best meet the needs of our intended beneficiary and one that could best put your generous donations to good use. We will provide updated information as soon as possible. Thank you, Heroes!

PUSONG PINOY meaning "Heart of a Filipino"

About Us

PUSONG PINOY

A group of family and friends wanting to make a difference, one book at a time. Since its inception in 2009, Pusong Pinoy became a force of over 88,000 HEROES worldwide via Facebook trying to make a difference - one book, one meal, one piece of clothing at a time. Our mission is to provide assistance to organizations in the Philippines that have effective programs designed to help marginalized kids learn and appreciate reading by donating used books to their cause. It is our hope that this site would inspire others to open their hearts and help make a difference in these children's lives. Today, we begin by collecting books and donating food items but perhaps someday we can do more. Let this be our means to pay it forward and give back to our country we love so dearly. "Pagtanaw sa pinanggalingan upang makatulong sa kinabukasan" - yan ang Pusong Pinoy
